Your 2014 horoscope

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 – Jan. 19)Your ambition is roused in 2014, and you intend to make your mark. No doubt you will because you are unusually diplomatic and charming now. (No small wonder, then, that all your relationships will blossom.) Be bold with your ambitions and expectations because you can benefit from the wealth of others. Late in the year is an excellent time to begin partnerships or marry.

Focus for 2014: Sometimes you do things alone; sometimes you do things with others. This year you benefit from forming working units with others.

AQUARIUS(Jan. 20 – Feb. 18) Your time of harvest continues, which means that this is your hour. Make travel plans and explore opportunities in publishing, the media, medicine and the law. It’s a great year for going back to school. You have excellent chances to improve your job or get a better one. Later, partnerships shine—and secret love affairs are likely for many.

Focus for 2014: Demand the advantage at work and in your career because you are empowered now. Satisfy your urge to travel.

PISCES(Feb. 19 – March 20) Your sex drive is amped in 2014. (It’s time to go shopping: Buy stilettos.) Now is the time to prepare for your career peak in 2016 and 2017. This means getting further training or education or expanding your world through travel. Disputes about shared property, taxes, debt and inheritances are likely. Fortunately, romance, love affairs, vacations, the arts and playful times overshadow all disagreements. What can you do to get ready for that opportunity?

Focus for 2014: This year offers chances to socialize, explore romance and enjoy the arts. Don’t forget that in two years, your cherished dreams can be fulfilled.

ARIES(March 21 – April 19) Although you have less support from others, you are building your self-confidence for your time of harvest in 2018. Look for real-estate opportunities and ways to improve your home. Family life will be happier and more enriched in 2014. Late in the year, vacation opportunities abound. The arts, romance, love affairs, the entertainment world and sports will bring joy and rewards.

Focus for 2014: People in power admire you this year. This will take care of itself. Enjoy and improve your home and family, which are your richest assets. Plan fun vacations.

TAURUS(April 20 – May 20) Partnerships continue to challenge you; nevertheless, your career will shine. Some will get recognition. Either way, you’re out of the gate and running. Opportunities for advanced training will come your way. You can benefit financially from relatives. Late in the year, expansions and changes to your home and family will make you happy. Focus for 2014: For the first time since 1999, you feel confident about future goals. But first you must decide about partnerships.

GEMINI(May 21 – June 20) As your hard work pays off, recognition comes your way. Look for ways to increase your income. Specifically, you can actualize whatever you value. Meanwhile, stay performance-ready because so much is demanded of you this year. Treat your body like a tool that needs top care. Late in the year, short trips change your attitude to the world. This leads to future plans that are larger and more expansive. Focus for 2014: If you focus on your work and your health, your financial success will expand through your job. Your optimism will be strong by winter.The rest of the signs are a click away on the next page...

CANCER(June 21 – July 22)Go slowly as you learn more about yourself this year, especially those of you involved in a love affair with someone older. Fortunately, with Jupiter still in your sign, people and resources are drawn to you. This is a fortunate time in your life, when things easily go your way. Accept this blessing and expect increased earnings late in the year. For some, this is a different job or the achievement of a cherished goal.

Focus for 2014: Outline what you want to achieve and act fast because you will not always be as fortunate as you are this year. Use this special blessing to your advantage.

LEO(July 23 – Aug. 22) Solidify your home base by repairing where you live or moving somewhere else. You won’t be able to move forward with future plans until you resolve loose ends with your home and family. Your self-awareness and self-understanding are increasing. This is important and empowering. By summer, for the first time in 12 years, lucky Jupiter enters Leo, bringing you enormous good fortune for the rest of the year.

Focus for 2014: Once you have settled loose details at home, including with family members, you will be ready to take advantage of Jupiter’s blessing, which begins this summer.

VIRGO(Aug. 23 – Sept. 22) Your immediate environment is in flux because of job changes and residential moves. For many, this completes what you started around 2007. Fortunately, support from others is at hand. You continue to be popular and enjoy good friendships. As things come together late in the year, you feel more aware of what you want and who you are. It’s not just a blur anymore.

Focus for 2014: You need to define where you live and work so you feel more settled. Accept the help of friends who are supportive because you need to be with people. Act on your ideals.

LIBRA(Sept. 23 – Oct. 22) Money has been tight and will continue to be so this year (but no worse than last year). In a 30-year cycle, this is the time to evaluate what you want in life. Ask yourself “What really matters?” Fortunately, others admire you this year. Important people are impressed. Use this to your advantage. By fall, your popularity will increase and keep increasing into 2015.

Focus for 2014: Since 2010, you’ve been redefining yourself. This is the year to get specific about future goals. What will bring you joy and fulfillment?

SCORPIO(Oct. 23 – Nov. 21) You are undergoing huge changes after saying goodbye to so much. Now, you are reinventing yourself until 2021. This is a year of preparation, so study, learn, practise and travel to hone your techniques and get more experience. You need to be performance- ready because, late this year, Jupiter will bring career opportunities your way. (Luck is being ready to use an opportunity.)

Focus for 2014: How do you want to be perceived by others? Jupiter at the top of your chart occurs once every 12 years, which means that this is your chance to put your name up in lights.

SAGITTARIUS(Nov. 22 – Dec. 21) Twice, perhaps three times, in your life, you experience this current cycle of having to give up what is no longer relevant to you (either by choice or not). Continue to move forward as you lighten your load. The wealth and resources of others will help you, especially via a partner. It’s a good time to get a loan or mortgage. Others will help you this year.

Focus for 2014: Plan how you’ll expand your world. By fall, travel, education, publishing, medicine and the law will offer rich opportunities.
